Questions

How many vinyl pressings of Coltrane are there?

57 vinyl pressings of Coltrane are listed here, from 10 countries, released between 1957 and 2026.

When was Coltrane first released on vinyl?

The earliest pressings are from 1957, in US. One of them is Prestige PRLP 7105, released September 1957.

How do I tell if my copy of Coltrane is a first pressing?

Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use PRLP 7105) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, AB RVG PRLP-7105-A and AB RVG PRLP-7105-B. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.

How much is Coltrane on vinyl worth?

It depends on which pressing you have and on the condition of the record and its sleeve. Early pressings from the album's home country in near mint condition are usually worth the most; common later reissues are worth far less. Scan your copy with VinylLens to see its value for every grade.
